I'm gonna make the bold call that this is one of the best routes I've done at Ebor. Feel like a sports route relocated from a completely different crag. Worlds apart from Tough customer in grade and style

With Robert. I really liked this. Most people won't because it is slimy and mossy. I love that sort of thing. The last move is quite hard, and a great move, and then you get to belay under the lookout and people on the lookout don't know you're there and if any Scotsmen come by you can see up their kilt (none did)
